Den
Home-style cooking meets Michelin-worthy gastronomic flair right in the very heart of Tokyo.
Restaurant Details
Chef Zaiyu Hasegawa is no ordinary Japanese chef. While others seek to replicate the high-class and historic cuisine of courtly Kyoto, he instead chose to cast light on a different side of his country’s food: a refined take on the home cooking of Japan.
This down-to-earth choice of menu, along with his impeccable execution, has earned his restaurant — Den, in Jimbocho — two Michelin stars in 2018 as well as a Green Star for sustainability. Here the staples which hold a fond place in the heart of every Japanese person are raised to a higher level through the application of expert culinary techniques.
Take for example their “Dentucky Fried Chicken”: chicken wings stuffed then deep-fried, potentially the best karaage on earth. The claypot cooked rice, topped with either meat or seafood, has also been met with endless praise.
It’s no wonder that Chef Hasegawa's establishment is consistently rated among the top 50 in Asia.

Ginza Wakuta
Fugu in winter, sakura shrimp in spring — located close to Ginza Station, Ginza Wakuta has earned its place among the district's premier kaiseki restaurants with its signature seasonal clay pot rice.
Shion
Even before moving to its current Akasaka location, a philosophy of reverence for Japan’s natural beauty has always driven the traditional kaiseki cuisine at Shion. Private rooms provide a much-needed respite from the Tokyo rush.
